please help me

Hi,

I've just bought a Belkin 54g wireless router off ebay (needless to say with
no instructions), I thought this would be easy but...............

I have plugged everything into my modem ok and my laptop finds and connects
to the wireless connection, but when I try to open the internet (I use
firefox) it say

"page cannot be displayed"

as if i'm offline


ANY help will be MUCH appreciated

Thank you so much in advance

Hi
Depending on your type on Internet connection, it might be an authentication

When in doubt, read the instructions. When no instructions are
supplied, check the manufacturer's web site. If you had identified
which Belkin router you bought, we could have directed you to the
manual, but just go to http://www.belkin.com/ and enter the model number
in the product search box. The manual for Belkin's current 54g router,
the F5D7230-4, is here:

(click the little Adobe icon to download).

open a command line

type in ipconfig

look what the gateway is

usually 192.168.2.1 on belkins

type this into firefox/ie

if it askes for a user/pass (belkins normaly don't) try the usual suspects

user admin
pass (blank) , admin 1234 user

and run the setup to put your user pass etxc in

give me more deatals like what country you are in who is your ip and I can
help you more
